Product Description
The Simpson ST6224 ST 23-5/16 in. 16-Gauge Galvanized Strap Tie is a load-rated, precut structural connector from Simpson engineered to resist tension loads across a wide range of framing applications. Built for speed and reliability, this economical strap tie is the go-to solution when top or bottom plates are cut, at wall intersections, and as ridge ties - delivering consistent, code-ready performance wherever structural continuity is critical.
Key Features
- Engineered to resist wind and seismic forces - provides dependable tension resistance in demanding structural environments where code compliance and safety margins matter most
- Precut strap design - eliminates field cutting and saves installation time, reducing labor costs on the job site
- 16-gauge steel construction - delivers the structural rigidity and load capacity needed for reliable framing connections
- Zinc Galvanized G90 coating - protects against corrosion for long-term durability in a range of installation conditions
- Versatile fastener compatibility - accepts either nails or Strong-Drive SD Connector screws, giving installers flexibility to work with their preferred hardware
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for high-stress framing scenarios - specifically designed for locations where plates are cut or interrupted, at wall intersections, and as ridge ties, making it a targeted solution rather than a generic strap
- Quick, accurate installation - the precut format means no measuring or cutting on site, so structural connections go in faster and with fewer opportunities for error
- Built-in corrosion protection - the G90 galvanized finish is applied at the manufacturing level, not as an afterthought, supporting long-term performance without additional field treatment
- Trusted Simpson engineering - load-rated and optimized for wind and seismic resistance, this strap tie is backed by the same structural engineering standards that make Simpson connectors a staple on professional framing projects
